Deze conclusie heb ik in maart al getrokken. Ik zei het ook in de podcast bij @ajboekestijn.bsky.social @hugoreitsma.bsky.social & @robdewijk.bsky.social We moeten als Europeanen ons eigen plan trekken. Er valt geen enkele strategie op Trump en MAGA te bouwen. hiddebouwmeester.nl/ik-heb-ameri...

Hungarian Spy network discovered in Ukraine Oekraïne claimt dat Hongaars spionnennetwerk onderzoek deed voor inval www.nu.nl/spanningen-o...

🚤⚠️ "300 enemy boats spotted in Kherson region - Russia is preparing a landing operation," said an officer of the diving detachment NGU "OMEGA" ❗️The goal of the Russian Federation is control over the Kherson and Mykolaiv regions.

Mooi beschreven www.volkskrant.nl/columns-van-...

Wat blijft hangen ..... "Sommige Europeanen zeggen: dit is mijn oorlog niet. Maar boven de hoofden van de militairen woedt een beslissend gevecht om de internationale rechtsorde. Als Europa die niet overeind houdt, is er straks geen orde meer. Ook voor Europa zelf niet." Must read!

Het verschil tussen Duitsland en Nederland: In Duitsland verklaart de inlichtingendienst extreem-rechts als extreem-rechts en staatsgevaarlijk. In Nederland is de voormalig chef van beide inlichtingendiensten vrijwillig premier geworden van een extreem-rechts kabinet.

Voormalig Trump adviseur Bannon over 100 dagen Trump "Het is een revolutie, van de rol van de VS in de wereld, geopolitieke positie en de manier waarop de VS geregeerd wordt". Trump is in 2028 weer president. Deze zomer zullen er meerder crises zijn, waaronder een grondwettelijke crisis."

Russian sources released a video showing North Korean and Russian troops exercising together. Ukraine is literally fighting for Europe and against the alliance of imperial Russia and Communist North Korea.

Dit zou viraal moeten gaan. Het is werkelijk verschrikkelijk en om gillend gek van te worden. PFAS-water ging gewoon jarenlang het afvoerputje in. Letterlijk; direct gif lozen in het riool. Alles. Mag. Kapot. Mensen, dieren, milieu. Ik ben het zo kotsbeu. En verder hoera voor Zembla.

Recap: *Vance insulted our NATO ally Denmark in bizarre bid to take over Greenland *Commander on the ground says his comments did not reflect the working relationship btw US and Denmark *She is fired The mildest pushback against their authoritarian fantasies is enough www.bbc.com/news/article...

That’s an interesting and quite clever approach that lets you incorporate changes in tariffs as they come

Important story that might be buried under another day of Trump induced market turmoil - there is mounting evidence that Russian actors had at least knowledge of some of the terror attacks that heavily influenced Germany‘s election campaign before they happened:

moet hier toch ook kunnen...?? #boston

WOW: Thousands are currently protesting in Boston. This is just one of more than 1200 'Hands Off' protests underway today across the nation as people rise up against the Trump-Musk regime. (via Rob Way)

When historians look back on this period the thing that will puzzle them most might be how little American law firms, universities, media, etc, really cared about defending free expression when presented with the most obvious opportunities to do so.

US Shit storm is getting worse. Buckle up! 😉😬 youtu.be/q2hi0MyBcLo?...

About the Signal leak of @theatlantic.com @general-ben.bsky.social : Probably it happened several times already, they were so casual in the conversation that leaked, tells me that this is the norm for sometime. This is a serious open wound. The people involved should be fired or resign. #buitenhof

‼️ Russia is preparing a large-scale offensive that should last from 6 to 9 months, — AP with reference to the General Staff of Ukraine ⚠️ The Kremlin intends to make a multi-pronged advance across the front line 1,000 km long.

I feel like this tweet did not get enough attention this week

Wut?? www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Het is weer tijd om de @nieuws.nos.nl even te helpen: 1) Sauer en zeker Mearsheimer zijn te omstreden en geen erkende experts meer. 2) óf wel óf niet aanvallen is te primitief. Zoals @osinga.bsky.social zegt: het kan een “limited probe strategy” zijn, bedoelt EU/NAVO te ondermijnen. nos.nl/l/2561513

Not satisfied with purchasing a Presidential Election to become co-President, Sissy SpaceX now wants to buy himself a Supreme Court judge in Wisconsin. You can end his shopping spree, Wisconsinites! 🚫 💰 #VoteForJudgeSusanCrawford 🗳️ ✅ 👍 This is super important.

People are taking things into their own hands

Europe needs to understand that the way Trump is treating Ukraine over the new mineral deal (trying to rob them blind but give Ukr no security) is how he will deal with Europe as a whole if he sees them as weak. The only way to deal with Trump is defiance--not bridge building.

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

Zaterdag eerste NL protest bij Tesla in Tilburg #TeslaTakedown www.omroeptilburg.nl/regio/tilbur...

Kremlin is preparing an invasion in the Baltics. The pretext is ready:

"I’ve never seen such clampdowns in Istanbul. Turkey’s democracy is fighting for its life" - Orhan Pamuk www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Why do we need Greenland to defend against Russia when we already work for Russia?

⚡️ NATO chief Rutte: No normalization with Russia after the war—not for decades. The threat remains, even post-Putin.

Great article in @thetimes.com by @edwardlucas.bsky.social . Trump’s shoddy deal with Putin puts Europe in a bind. www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...

“It is essential that Europeans don’t fall for this US/Russian stitch-up, which will strengthen Russia, weaken Ukraine, and undermine the security of the rest of Europe,” wrote @cerianbond.bsky.social deputy director of the @centreeuropeanref.bsky.social think-tank.

It seems Russia is now just passing all stolen US tech to North Korea for production, outsourcing it not only for cheap labor but to then deny it's Russia stealing it all. Russia can use it to kill Ukrainians and Kim can destabilize Asia. Meanwhile, Trump craves the approval of both dictators.

A reminder: Ru is absolutely NOT winning on the battlefield. It’s bogged down in Donbas, sending wounded soldiers on donkeys. It begs for the Black Sea deal to come back because it cannot achieve dominance militarily. It begs for sanctions relief. Ru *could* win, though, w Trump’s continued help.

If you don't want to see this horrible garbage happen in every future high-stakes election, make sure it demonstrably fails in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race by helping elect Susan Crawford

CAN EUROPE WAKE UP??? Russian national Andrei Mochalin successfully registered a fake Norwegian insurance company and issued forged insurance certificates to at least 255 tanker ships, including 76 Russian shadow fleet oil tankers. danwatch.dk/en/forged-pa...

In light of the current OpSec scandal, it seems like as good a time as any to re-up the video of Pete Hegseth accidentally hitting a man with an ax on Fox & Friends like a decade ago

Right now, there’s an important race happening that will shape the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the next 10 years. Judge Susan Crawford is ready to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all Wisconsinites. Make a plan to vote early today — don’t wait until April 1st: wisdems.org/vote

In the first Trump administration, European entities were sanctioned for seeking gas from Russia. Now, Trump seems intent on forcing Russian gas down Europe’s throat. The overarching goal seems to be to screw Europe www.politico.eu/article/russ...
